In the automotive, aerospace, and defense sectors, every detail counts. The interface between driver and machine must be intuitive, reliable, and able to withstand extreme conditions. It’s in this demanding environment that our FL Series buttons find their place, integrated into high-performance steering wheels designed by XAP, a recognized leader in embedded systems for motorsport. Discover how our technology contributes to the precision, robustness, and responsiveness needed to win the race.
Light at the service of performance
Control in extreme environments
In motor racing, the driver constantly interacts with their steering wheel to adjust the car’s behavior in real time. Each button must respond instantly, even under intense vibrations, varying temperatures, and in a very confined space. These constraints make the design of human-machine interfaces (HMIs) particularly complex.
XAP is a major player in the design of racing wheels. Their expertise lies in their ability to combine ergonomics, performance, and robustness, guaranteeing the driver total control. The challenge was therefore clear: develop integrated controls that withstand extreme demands without ever failing.
The FL series integrated into XAP steering wheels
To meet this need, our FL series buttons were selected and integrated into XAP steering wheels. These components are distinguished by their compactness, robustness, and the tactile quality they offer the driver.
Designed to withstand vibration, dust, and humidity, our buttons are tested to last in harsh environments. Their precise tactile feedback ensures each press is clearly felt, preventing any misoperation. Furthermore, they are customizable, allowing XAP to adapt the ergonomics to the specific preferences of drivers.
A standard for critical HMIs
Beyond motorsport, this success paves the way for the use of our components in other fields where reliability and compactness are essential: aircraft cockpits, drones, simulators, and even military equipment.
We are proud to contribute to these innovations by providing solutions that combine cutting-edge technology and rock-solid reliability. If you too are interested in integrating critical and robust components into your projects, please do not hesitate to contact us.
